IMPORTANT:

Allow

 

3 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.

Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the 
first three batches of ice produced. Allow 2 to 3 days for the 
storage bin to fill completely following installation.

The dispensing system will not operate when either 
refrigerator door or the freezer drawer is open.

Air in the water dispensing system can cause the water dispenser 
to drip. After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or 
replacing the water filter, flush the water system. 

Flushing the water dispensing system, forces air from the water 
line and filter and prepares the water filter for use. Additional 
flushing may be required in some households.

NOTE:

 As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of 

the dispenser.

1.

Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water 
dispenser pad for 5 seconds.

2.

Release the dispenser pad for 5 seconds. Repeat steps 1 and 
2 until water begins to flow. 

3.

Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing 
the dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total 
of 3 gal. (12 L) has been dispensed.

IMPORTANT:

 

Dispense at least 1 qt (1 L) of water every week to maintain a 
fresh supply.

If the flow of water from the dispenser decreases, it could be 
caused by low water pressure. 

To check water pressure:

With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup of water. If 
1 cup of water is dispensed in 8 seconds or less, the 
water pressure to the refrigerator meets the minimum 
requirement.

If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup of 
water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower than 
recommended. See “Water Supply Requirements” and 
“Troubleshooting” for suggestions.

Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin. To turn off the ice 
maker, see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”

The dispenser may continue to make noise and ice may continue 
to dispense for several seconds after releasing the dispenser 
button or pad.

IMPORTANT:

 If the ice cubes are hollow or have an irregular 

shape, it could be because of low water pressure. See “Water 
Supply Requirements.”

-

Humidity causes ice to naturally clump together. Ice particles can 
build up until the ice dispenser chute becomes blocked. 

If ice is not dispensed regularly, it may be necessary to empty the 
ice storage bin and clean the ice delivery chute, the ice storage 
bin and the area beneath the storage bin every 2 weeks.

If necessary, remove the ice clogging the storage bin and 
delivery chute, using a plastic utensil. 

Clean the ice delivery chute and the bottom of the ice storage 
bin using a warm, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

-

IMPORTANT: 

Hold the glass close to the dispenser opening so water or ice 
will fall into the glass.

You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the button or pad 
to activate the dispenser. Pressing hard will not make water or 
ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.

Press SELECT to toggle through the following choices in a 
continuous loop. The icons on the display indicate your selection.

Water (default) - Dispenses water

Crushed Ice - Dispenses crushed ice

NOTE: 

Cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This may 

cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise from 
the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size.

Cubed Ice - Dispenses cubed ice.

NOTE:

 When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces 

of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.
